Manufacturing Corporation of America Announces Cutting-Edge Additive Manufacturing Capability at IBEX 2024
Innovative technology will streamline production, boost precision, and expand market reach
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Oct. 2, 2024 - Manufacturing Corporation of America (MCA), an investor-owned, industrial-focused business committed to revitalizing American manufacturing, will showcase its cutting-edge technology at IBEX, International BoatBuilders' Exhibition & Conference in Tampa, Fla., from Oct. 1-3.
This innovative technology will significantly enhance the operations of Uniforce, a Conway, Ark.-based manufacturer acquired by MCA in April. By dramatically reducing lead times for product development and thermoforming processes, Uniforce can offer faster, more efficient services to existing customers while exploring new business opportunities across various manufacturing sectors.
"We're excited to welcome IBEX attendees to booth 3-723, where they can get an exclusive look at this cutting-edge technology and learn more about Uniforce's capabilities," said Greg White, President of Manufacturing Operations at MCA.
The newly installed EXT 1270 Titan Pellet 3D printer by 3D Systems will enable rapid and precise production of large molds and tooling, complementing Uniforce's existing plastic and composite fabrication technology. By leveraging advanced computer-assisted design and the industrial precision and reliability of their new additive manufacturing system, Uniforce can produce high-quality products faster and with improved accuracy. The operational savings from this technology will be passed directly to customers, further enhancing their experience.
"This innovation ensures Uniforce continues to meet and exceed the high standards our customers expect," White added. "Importantly, it positions us to expand into sectors where precision is critical, such as aerospace and defense."

Featured Product
T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
